Answer:

the verb tense is incorrect.... library had been closed this coming Friday.

Step-by-step explanation:

the correct tense must be in the future tense, since is the coming Friday.

Not in the past like had been closed.

The correct tense should be:

Louis told me that the library is going to be closed this coming Friday, so I will not be able to meet you there.
